I looked into them but sounds a bit volatile. Have a small amount in RIOT who are similar but added Mara to my watchlist, have too many to look into at the moment to put anything else in today.

Hoping to add 2-3 rapid growth stocks over the next fortnight (NIO and 2 others) and decide which longer term safe bet I’m going to plunge for.

On the latter I’m looking at VW and GM mostly but tempted by solar edge while it’s plateaued.

Nice, RIOT seems promising aswell.

Maybe you can consider investing in an airline for long term, a stable one that can still survive for quite sometime. Its a bit of a risk and maybe I am optimistic but I feel several airlines will recover in a year or 2-3.

Bought MARA today at its highest dip, and its already recovering slightly, so Im very pleased. Hopefully bitcoin goes up soon

Or, maybe you can consider going for ArcelorMittal, they are one of the leading steel companies.
Ive seen reports that it will be a huge year for the steel industries. Got a few shares of Mittal myself too.

*take everything what I say with a pinch of salt, I am a beginner.

That being said, despite the weird market of today, its actually been my best day so far.
Aiming to double my money by the end of the year

Yeah I've got them on my list - been looking through United and American this afternoon. Southwest seems the safest but they've got less growth potential imo, American could easily shoot up once travel restarts.

Always good to have tips, particularly if the source has a good track record. I always research and make my own decision in the end based on what info I can find obv.

It's very easy to read 1 article and want to jump in but I'm trying to focus on an area at a time and decide which is my favourite 1/2 stocks in that area. Also don't want to lump in much more than 5k at the moment as I'm pretty amateur and already have 3k in USD so I'll be getting close to 10k by the end of the month, need to focus on that rather than having a wide portfolio. Plus the charges at HL are £12 per stock purchase so you can't really invest small sums.

Yeah I have nearly bought them yesterdays but holded back last minute. They are still on the same level today which is good.

Its a huge gamble, if the rumours are true that they are bringing Lucid motors public, then the stock will absolutely rocket.
If the rumours are fake, or fall through...well then it will hit rock bottom

If I had any spare cash myself, I would of bought it.

Yeah I went in on it but just for 500 as I’ve not done it before. Will still be a bad burn if it falls through but then I might turn it into a long hold and hope he picks up something else soonish.

Still waiting for NIO to drop, almost picked it at 56 and 58 now sat desperately waiting for it for fall anywhere near that :lol:

Anybody here interested in dividend-yielding stocks?

I mostly do index ETFs myself as anything other than buy and hold feels like gambling, and I'd rather not stress about timing my exit to maximize my capital gains.
